How to Choose the Perfect Panjabi Size for Your Body Type

When selecting a traditional yet modern Panjabi, understanding your true body measurements ensures the garment flatters your silhouette while providing day-long comfort.

1. Chest Measurement

Wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape level under your arms. For a modern slim-regular fit, add 3 to 4 inches of breathing room over your bare body measurement.

2. Shoulder Width

Measure from the tip of one shoulder bone across the natural curve of your back to the opposite shoulder bone. A crisp shoulder line defines high-grade Panjabi tailoring.

3. Length Selection

Standard lengths typically fall just below the knee (approx. 40 to 44 inches depending on height). For casual cotton Panjabis, slightly shorter cuts offer effortless versatility with jeans or chinos.

4. Collar & Sleeve Alignment

Ensure the mandarin collar sits comfortably without choking your throat when fully buttoned. Sleeve cuffs should rest naturally at the base of your thumb.
